Are these out yet ? If so when did they hit and if not any idea when they're due ? I want to try and get a set of the recoloured race team and I'm putting off buying the dlx toys from elsewhere till they're out.
Havn't seen them yet at my W*M. Oh well, I have all the deluxes and I'm not too fond of minicons so no biggie.
They have been out at least 3 weeks. I almost bought Thundercracker. He looks so awesome in that package.
They've been out for several weeks now, but not all Walmarts will necessarily get them. ONe store has them stashed in with leftover Batman roleplay crap, while another has a display section in the main aisle for them. It just depends on your store
Saw them a week or 2 ago at only one of the 3 WalMarts I frequent. They looked okay but I have no need for more minicons or duplicates of figures I already own. And no, none are good for kitbashing.
i have not seen a lick of them in southern new jersey yet either....not that I am getting them...already have them.
The two Wal-Marts near me have them. In fact one got a HUGE shipment of them in, might have been a pallet that they placed on the shelves and overstock area since there were several in stock.
Anyone fancy helping an English collector out ? PM me and I'll tell you the ones I need. Can pay with Paypal or trade off my for sale list.
They've been out here for awhile. Picked up Hotshot so far, may pass on the rest since I already bought them. Twice! back of box http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v148/loebig/Cybertron/CHotshotwMiniconbob.jpg
I haven't seen them in my local Wal-Mart. It got a ton of the BOGO deluxes and Scouts instead, which is such a sweeter deal (and has more variety, thanks to Sideways and Snarl). I wanted these Mini-Cons before, but with such a better deal available, I've lost interest. But I do have a question, for reference at least. What's the best combination of figures that will not only net me a full set of the Mini-Cons, but also keep away from the worst of the deluxes? I already have a Red Alert, which I'm sure doesn't help.
Finally found a set off EBay thanks to Maximal 78s Domain Checks Phil's Minicon Recolour Page as he can't remember who comes with who.... It's Hot Shot or Override with Mirage - obviously Hot Shot is the one you want here. You've already got Red Alert, so you need to Landmine for Dirt Boss(minicon)..... But Landmine's a great toy so you won't mind that. Downshift comes with Thundercracker or DirtBoss(dlx). take your pick really !
Oh, that was fast. Thanks a lot man. Hot Shot, Landmine, and... one of two sub-par Decepticons. Joy. Maybe I'd pick Thundercracker then - however loose he'd be, at least he doesn't have weird looking junk hanging behind his head. I dunno, it's a lose-lose situation.
